FELTON, CORNELIUS CONWAY Ameri can classical scholar, was born on Nov. 6, 1807, in West Newbury (Mass.). He graduated at Harvard College in 1827, and after teaching in the high school at Geneseo (N.Y.), he became tutor at Harvard in 1829, university professor of Greek in 1832 and Eliot professor of Greek literature in 1834. In 186o he succeeded James Walker as president of Harvard, which position he held until his death, at Chester (Pa.), on Feb. 26, 1862. Dr. Felton edited many classical texts and made several translations. His annotations on Wolf's text of the Iliad (1833) and his Greece, Ancient and Modern (2 vols., 1867), were, perhaps, his out standing works.
